[mso] Re: Access 2002: DMax Problem

Got it Jim, thanks!  Your help got me looking in different places than I
would have for the solution and came up with this:

SELECT MasterTypeID.TypeID, MasterTypeID.TypeDesc, MasterTypeID.Number,
(DMax([Number],"MasterTypeID")+1) AS NextNumber
FROM MasterTypeID
WHERE (((MasterTypeID.TypeID)=[forms]![selectordertype]![typeid]));



                                                                                
                                
                      "Jim Pettit"                                              
                                
                      <jimpettit@xxxxxxxx      To: <mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>          
                                
                      m>

Cathy--

With the form objects in quotation marks like that, Access can't "see" the
value you want it to see; it's trying to find a record that matches the
name
of the box. ;-)

Try this instead:

SELECT TypeID, Type, Number,
DMax("Number", "MasterTypeID", Forms!Selectordertype!Cbotype) + 1 AS
NextNumber
FROM MasterTypeID

That'll work if the bound column for your combo box is the one you want, if
not, you'll have to go with this:

SELECT TypeID, Type, Number,
DMax("Number", "MasterTypeID", Forms!Selectordertype!Cbotype.Columns(?)) +
1
AS NextNumber
FROM MasterTypeID
